Welcome to Tuesday’s Washington Secrets. If a friend sent you this and you’d like to sign up, CLICK HERE. We were in the room (a rather colorful room) for Katie Zacharia’s first briefing as White House press secretary. It was short and sweet.

It probably made sense in the strategy meeting. A new press secretary had only been in the job for 24 hours before being sent out for her first briefing, so keep it short, drop a news bombshell and get out before anything can go wrong.
